install HTTP-Cookies-Chrome?

[rc0clx]

http://search.cpan.org/~bdfoy/HTTP-Cookies-Chrome-0.99_07/

The above module install fine with the usual perl Makefile.PL && make && make install.

But, why is the following NOT WORKING? The CPAN module complains about not finding HTTP::Cookies::Chrome.

The module is marked "** DEVELOPER RELEASE **".

rc0clx@rc0clx-desktop:~$ sudo perl -MCPAN -we 'install HTTP::Cookies::
+Chrome;'

The module is marked "** DEVELOPER RELEASE **".

...which is why CPAN won't install it by default.

Question #12 of the current CPAN FAQ is "How do I install a "DEVELOPER RELEASE" of a module?"
